i have found the board that has head amp stamped on it,
is this the one i need to check?
i had a good look with a micro glass and can not find any signs of heat or failure,
ill do a few more checks and if nothing ill bin it
do you have any recommendations on what model to look for that are kind of reliable ?
i have tried a few sonys ,jvcs ,national, all were no good for long electronically,
im thinking of going euro as they have got to be better than these jap units ,
what do you think
